Job description
Are you an experienced software engineer who enjoys combining hands-on development with technical leadership? Do you like solving complex engineering challenges, helping other developers grow and taking ownership of the technical direction of a scalable software platform?
For one of our clients, Bold Company is looking for a Team Lead / Senior Software Engineer. You will combine hands-on software development with technical leadership and play an important role in the further development of a large-scale, data-driven SaaS platform.
As Team Lead / Senior Software Engineer, you remain actively involved in development while also helping the engineering team make the right technical decisions.
Your responsibilities include:
- Designing, developing and improving scalable software solutions
- Taking technical ownership of the platform
- Contributing hands-on to the codebase
- Making architectural and technical decisions together with the engineering team
- Supporting developers with complex technical challenges
- Performing code reviews and improving engineering standards
- Improving platform performance, scalability and reliability
- Translating product and business requirements into technical solutions
- Coaching developers and sharing technical knowledge
- Improving development processes, tooling and software quality
- Working closely with product owners and other technical stakeholders
You are an experienced developer who still enjoys writing code, but also likes helping a team move forward technically.
You are comfortable challenging technical decisions, discussing architecture and supporting other developers when needed.
We are looking for someone with:
- Several years of professional software development experience
- Experience as a Senior Developer, Lead Developer, Tech Lead or similar
- Experience with PHP and modern PHP frameworks such as Laravel or Symfony
- Experience building scalable SaaS or software platforms
- Experience with APIs, integrations and databases
- Strong understanding of software architecture and design principles
- Experience with CI/CD, Git and automated testing
- Experience with performance and scalability
- Strong analytical and problem-solving skills
- Experience coaching or supporting other developers
Experience with high-volume data processing, MarTech or complex SaaS platforms is considered a plus.
You will join a technology-driven organisation where software development is at the heart of the product.
You can expect:
- Annual salary between €70,000 and €80,000, depending on experience.
- A senior position with significant technical responsibility
- A combination of hands-on development and technical leadership
- Freedom to influence architecture and technical decisions
- Opportunities for professional and technical development
- Work on a scalable, data-driven SaaS platform
- An ambitious and international engineering environment
- Direct impact on both the product and the development team
- Plenty of room to introduce new ideas and improve engineering practices
This position is ideal for a Senior Developer who wants to take the next step towards technical leadership without moving away from development.
You will not spend your days purely managing people or coordinating tickets. You remain close to the code, solve complex technical challenges and help determine how the platform evolves.
At the same time, you will coach other developers, improve engineering standards and have a direct influence on technical decisions.
